A link pyramid is a structured tiered link-building strategy used in SEO to improve a website’s authority and search engine rankings. It consists of multiple levels (tiers) of backlinks, with each tier supporting the one above it.

Structure of a Link Pyramid
Tier 1 (Top-Level Links) – High-quality, authoritative backlinks that directly link to your website (e.g., guest posts, niche edits, press releases, and high-quality blog posts).
Tier 2 (Supporting Links) – Backlinks that point to Tier 1 links to strengthen their authority (e.g., Web 2.0 properties, social bookmarks, and article submissions).
Tier 3 (Low-Level Links) – Backlinks pointing to Tier 2 links, often automated or lower-quality links (e.g., forum comments, directory submissions, and bulk-generated backlinks).
Benefits of a Link Pyramid
Strengthens Tier 1 backlinks, making them more powerful.
Helps build a natural backlink profile.
Reduces the risk of Google penalties (since spammy links do not directly link to your site).
Improves SEO rankings in a structured, scalable way.
